Advice and the two distinct choices
Suppose Mira asks a distinct career-development adviser for help. Using DOCA.7, the adviser bounds the service on independently established competence, Mira’s participation, confidential individual feedback, an employer-facing summary limited to agreed work implications, and appropriate treatment of provider interests. These are supplied conditions of this constructed scene, not consequences of the sponsor’s payment. A private assessment does not become an employer record.
PSD receives the formed direction question and qualified available inputs. While mentor capacity and transfer remain unresolved, its useful return can retain conditional directions with those limits. A request or recommended probe follows only when its obtainable contribution warrants the whole burden; the missing premises do not establish a winner. In a later scene, assume the required capacity and comparison results have arrived and the authorized choice inputs are adequate. Mira explicitly chooses the personal-development direction A under its stated resource and evidence limits. That choice is a new case fact; neither the opportunity table nor the advice made it for her.
HCD.2 — Compose and Compare Human Capability-Development Programmes for Later Work now receives the selected development stake, compatible profile, later tasks, participation and qualified support. In this constructed continuation, the HCD practitioner supplies a programme-comparison account for two feasible candidates under those conditions:
| Programme candidate | Qualified resource and support position | Expected contribution and limit |
|---|---|---|
| Coached whole-task sequence | Three learner hours and one mentor hour per week, including preparation, attempts, feedback, correction, retries and checks. The provider confirms that one hour is available. | More of the early attempt receives immediate guidance. Later independent and unfamiliar performance remains to be tested. |
| Reference-supported individual sequence with scheduled expert checks | Three learner hours and half an expert hour per week, including the same categories of learner and provider work. The stated references and checking access are available. | More of the attempt occurs before expert feedback. Error correction and changed-condition checking remain necessary; lower expert time is not an effectiveness finding. |
Both fit within the remainder of the original four-month horizon, with inquiry and choice time already allowed for, and preserve Mira’s thirty-eight-hour working-week limit. The supplied account identifies an authorized three-hour reallocation from reporting work that can be suspended without moving it to colleagues or losing a required release output. It includes setup, access, assessment, stopping and restoration costs within the reported allocations; performance expectations and transfer uncertainty remain explicit. These are assumed qualified HCD and organizational inputs, not results calculated by DOCA from the table. No unqualified practice attempt authorizes live release acceptance. Unequal description detail, missing displacement or an unconfirmed provider hour would reopen the comparison.
If programme advice is wanted, PSD uses that HCD.2 account to prepare a separate recommendation. In this continuation Mira makes the authorized programme choice of the reference-supported sequence with scheduled expert checks, using the complete comparison and choice inputs. If advice is not wanted and those inputs already exist, the comparison can go directly to the actual chooser. The earlier direction choice did not select this programme.
